Enteral and intravenous supplementation of arginine and citrulline fail to prevent necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm neonatal pigs

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most common gastrointestinal emergency in preterm infants with a morality rate that approaches 50%. Arginine has been widely studied in the field of clinical nutrition as a supplement for patients experiencing critical illness because it can be metabolized into nitric oxide, an important agent ...

Developmental outcomes after soybean oil vs mixed‐oil intravenous lipid emulsions in neonates: A secondary analysis of a clinical trial

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fatty acids make up a significant portion of brain mass. The choice of lipid injectable emulsion alters a patient's fatty acid profile. In neonates with intestinal failure dependent on parenteral nutrition, this is particularly concerning given their rapid brain development. Methods We randomly assigned 24 infants to receive soy oil
